Ecobead Platinum Pumped Cavity Wall Insulation

This is the most effective way to save energy and reduce your energy bills. Up to 35% of heat in your home can be lost through the walls.

If your house has been built within the last 30 years there is a good chance it already has some level of cavity wall insulation. Over the years, the thickness of insulation fitted into cavity walls in newly built homes has increased due to improved building regulations. Unfortunately the level of insulation in many homes is well below the required current standards and you could be still losing heat which adds to your energy bills.

Experts estimate 70% of heat is lost through poorly insulated homes.

There has never been a better time than now to insulate your home, with government grants available, you can save up to €650 if you install Pumped Cavity Wall & Attic Insulation.

If you want to install or top up the insulation in your cavity walls, the best solution for you is Ecobead Platinum Blown Cavity wall insulation. This Eco friendly insulation is by far the most efficient and cost effective energy system you can buy.

The Ecobead Platinum Insulation System

It's fast, it's clean, it insulates and eliminates waste.

EcoBead Platinum is a high performance, injected, blown bead EPS insulation system that can be used in domestic, commercial and industrial cavity wall constructions. Incredibly fast to install and with no without waste, it is just as suitable for new build as it is for improving the thermal performance of existing buildings.

All installations are carried out by our approved installers, where a series of 22mm holes are drilled on either the outside (for retro-fit) or inside (new build) leaf of the cavity construction.

The EPS beads are injected into the wall under pressure with a specially designed adhesive and bond together forming a solid mass inside the cavity. The unique flow of bead coupled with its lightness enables the insulation to conform precisely to every fissure of the block and brickwork. When the target pressure is reached, the backpressure causes the system to shut down, producing a complete fill every time. The beads' spherical structure creates tiny air pockets in the insulation once the adhesive has dried. Every bead has a single point of contact with each of the surrounding beads, allowing the cavity to breathe and any moisture penetrating the outer leaf to drain away immediately.

The thermal insulation properties of EcoBead Platinum will remain effective for the life of the building and will neither crack nor settle.
